Pacific Center for Violence Prevention http://www.pcvp.org/

Located at San Francisco General Hospital, the Pacific Center for Violence Prevention supports community-based violence prevention in California and works to reduce youth access to drugs, alcohol, and firearms. Despite the Center's focus on California, interested users from any state will find a large number of violence-prevention resources at the site. Sections for Drugs, Alcohol, and Firearms each contain facts sheets, policy briefs, statistics, and links to related publications and other resources. Additional offerings at the site include memos on and links to federal and state firearm legislation, news updates, and a listing of events and conferences. Portions of the site are also available in Spanish.

It does make me grumble when sites have huge gratuitous images with no text alternative, or black backgrounds with dark blue text. Broken links, missing images, and the like fall into the same "Your Slip Is Showing" category. You can use ForkInTheHead.com to

- Send any web site owner a fork-o-gram with a message about what YOU think is wrong with their site...

- Make your own site fork-free by finding out what works and what doesn't...

- Enjoy some light relief with jokes, games and more.

And if you couldn't guess, here's the address for the site:
